The latest and greatest.
Well, the 2013 photo year is at an end. Just wanted to say thanks to everyone I worked with this passed year, and I'm looking forward to the 2014. With a baby on the way in March, my family will be growing, and I hope to keep my business growing as well to support. So thanks to those who support me in what I do! I think the pages of this years blog reflect that its been a good year indeed!
Happy New Year everyone!
I survived the ice storm of the decade! While I was outside with taking the dog for a pee, contemplating my good fortune, I decided to snap a few shots of everything caked in ice. It had a neat look... glowing around the edges. Very fresnel (look it up!).
This shot was part of the same series we did for the original shoot with Janey, a few posts down. Of the few she chose as keepers, I only ended up working on 1 (the one posted earlier), and this one was put on hold. Then she was told she was getting a spread in a magazine and wanted to use this shot as well, so I scrambled to get it done in time for the submission. I think I like this one better than the original. Just something about it seems more crisp, or right, or good, or great?! .... I like it.
My old friend Brendan got married! He was kind enough to call me to take some pictures for him. While I haven't known Brendan a super long time, most of the time in the past we spent hanging out in garages while he helped void any warranties that may be left on my car. Im not used to seeing him in a shirt and tie... at least ones that arent covered in oil and grease. So it was fun to see that he can cleaned up well after all.
This was a short little wedding at the Drake Pub in Mississauga. The English theme of the place went well with the family heritage as well. Plus, the benefit of having your wedding at a pub is that there is an unlimited amount of chicken wings!
When we had discussed plans initially back in the summer, we had decide they wanted to do an "epic photo" much in the style of one Id done of Brendan a couple years ago. I have this stylized portrait on my services page, but have yet to have a couple want to go for it. Im glad they did though as I now have a sample to show. Here is what we came up with...
